I don't know why your portindex would be corrupt. Try "sudo port selfupdate".
If it's still corrupted then, let us know.
Please switch your sources.conf to

If you're referring to the unexpected "ldap" and "postgres" user and group
appearing here, I've explained that before. Ignore it. It shouldn't be causing
any problems.
